GWTTKB takes

buy · medium conviction · Aug 2026

Deliberately paired with a "safe" tier-mate as a two-QB build specifically because his own floor is considered genuinely low — real bust risk exists — but the ceiling, given a well- regarded OC and two proven, high-target-earning weapons, is argued to be as high as some names a full tier above him. The specific case: the downside of the pairing strategy is capped (drop him for free if it doesn't work) while the upside is real.
